Re:
Just caught up with this thread :facepalm:
I love the overall look, and think the rims are fine that colour. I have a pair of Omega V rims on the Roberts I just built. Love them! And with Conti GP tyres on, it will fly along! I used that rim/tyre combination when I raced. With 18mm GPs!
Also a no from me, regarding red tyres.
Helium rims are nice, but no good for me at around 78kg. Recommended for riders under 75kg if I'm not mistaken
